The LinuxServer.io team brings you another quality container release featuring auto-update on startup, easy user mapping and community support. Be sure to checkout our forums or for real-time support our IRC on freenode at #linuxserver.io.

linuxserver/tt-rss

Tiny Tiny RSS is an open source web-based news feed (RSS/Atom) reader and aggregator, designed to allow you to read news from any location, while feeling as close to a real desktop application as possible. tt-rss

Usage

docker create --name=tt-rss -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v <path to data>:/config -e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> -e TZ=<timezone> -p 80:80 -p443:443 linuxserver/tt-rss

Parameters

• -p 80 - webui port see note below
• -v /etc/localtime for timesync - optional omit if using TZ variable
• -v /config - where tt-rss should store it's config files
• -e PGID for GroupID - see below for explanation
• -e PUID for UserID - see below for explanation
• -e TZ for setting timezone information, eg Europe/London

It is based on phusion-baseimage with ssh removed, for shell access whilst the container is running do docker exec -it tt-rss /bin/bash.

User / Group Identifiers

TL;DR - The PGID and PUID values set the user / group you'd like your container to 'run as' to the host OS. This can be a user you've created or even root (not recommended).

Part of what makes our containers work so well is by allowing you to specify your own PUID and PGID. This avoids nasty permissions errors with relation to data volumes (-v flags). When an application is installed on the host OS it is normally added to the common group called users, Docker apps due to the nature of the technology can't be added to this group. So we added this feature to let you easily choose when running your containers.

Setting up the application

You must create a user and database for tt-rss to use in a mysql/mariadb or postgresql server. In the setup page for database, use the ip address rather than hostname...

A basic apache configuration file can be found in /config/apache/site-confs , edit the file to enable ssl (port 443 by default), set servername etc.. Self-signed keys are generated the first time you run the container and can be found in /config/keys , if needed, you can replace them with your own.

The site files are in /config/www/tt-rss , you can find config files and themes folder there. Email and other settings are in the config.php file.

Updates

• Upgrade to the latest version simply docker restart tt-rss.
• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime docker logs -f tt-rss.
